Boat rental in Vieste · Beneteau — First 36.7 (2006)
Description of Rocco Roberto's sailboat
Sailboat Beneteau First 36.7 11m
Fast and safe super-equipped boat for cruising and regattas, comfortable with wood paneling, kitchen and bathroom, equipped with 3 double cabins and equipped with every safety system.The boat is easy to drive and sailing lessons are given with the use of more sails including spinnaker. Manfredonia port of embarkation is at the gates of the splendid Gargano coasts: a lively town, founded by King Manfredi (son of Emperor Frederick II of Swabia) of which a castle remains and a starting point for itineraries by land towards Monte S, Angelo, S .Giovanni Rotondo or the Umbra Forest. We set sail from Manfredonia and after a welcome drink our journey begins: the coast immediately winds through such an infinity of beautiful beaches, bays and deserted bays, that it is a dilemma to choose where to stop: we immediately meet the white pebble beach of Mattinata, Fontana delle Rose, then Baia delle Zagare with the beach of the homonymous Grandhotel, Vignanotica, the resort of Pugnochiuso, Baia s. Nicola with the rock of the Architello (an arch-shaped stack in the sea) the famous Grotta Sfondata with its play of light, Vieste, Peschici. In all these places it is possible to moor to swim and eat on board or go ashore and taste the fish in a restaurant. You can choose to stop in Vieste, an international tourist destination and stay overnight in the port. Instead, having longer periods available, you can get to the Tremiti Islands or go to Croatia, a maze of beautiful islands that can be easily reached within a few miles.

Overall rating
Roberto was a great host and he is an experienced sailor. The weather was perfect so we had full sails the whole day through the Gargano. Thank you, Roberto!
Roberto took us to beautiful places to swim and their travel advices were very helpful, the kids enjoyed a lot
Wondeful boat and great people. Definetely would come back again!!
They made the trip and experience 10 times greater. I would do it again
We had a great time and this trip was good value for money. Thanks to Roberto and his son we were able to see wonderful places in great company! Some suggestions for improvement: 1. Regulating water temperature in the bathroom was very difficult, which resulted in discomfort and possibly increased water consumption. The shower hose coming out of the sink became twisted and pinched. 2. The cabin was cluttered by storing the large solar panel in a box and the large pillows for the outdoor seats. The solar panel could be replaced by a foldable panel, and the three large pillows by several smaller, that fit in an outside storage. 3. The host harbours were we stayed had poor or no facilities. The host should have made sure otherwise in advance. For the rest, we had great time, they were very helpful and welcoming people.
Rocco and his son Emanuele were incredible travel companions! Friendly, attentive, prepared! Definitely a beautiful experience. Thank you for this unforgettable vacation
Roberto and Emmanuel were perfect! The trip was exceptional and memorable thanks to them! We did some great sailing and they were exceptional guides! I hope to sail alongside them again. They know the region by heart and they made us appreciate it. Highly recommend this SUPER owner and this boat.
Pleasant and helpful owner but dirty boat and absolutely not suitable for 6 people as stated. Anchor and bathroom not working. Ruined sails.
Roberto and his son were very nice. But the planned boat did not start. We lost 1 hour before we could leave after finding another boat. This new boat was very slow and did not make it to Vieste. We did however see some beautiful coves. Along the way they also noticed that the dinghy engine was not working. So many unforeseen events ... Overall impression therefore very mixed
Absolutely positive experience. Roberto and his son Emanuele are kind and helpful taking care of their customers. We spent a pleasant day on the boat, highly recommended!
Our experience aboard Roçco Roberto's boat was absolutely positive. He is very kind, helpful and nice, an expert in navigation and knows the places where we have been well, and despite the weather it was not the best, he adopted strategies that made us spend 3 excellent days of vacation.
Roberto and his son were very kind and helpful in making the stay comfortable and in providing us with explanations on the places visited. We have always been able to adapt the day according to our needs. It was almost like a vacation with friends!
Roberto and his son Emanuele are great people, super helpful and kind. The boat is beautiful and comfortable. Experience to repeat.
Very fast boat, very nice owner. An excellent sailing lesson with the spinnaker and an Italian language lesson. There was also participation in the regatta and a place on the podium! I highly recommend to everyone
The experience was very positive, Roberto the Skipper and Fabio were always very attentive to the requests of the group, a good feeling was created during the holiday, making navigation even more fun. The boat is comfortable but obviously you still need to know how to adapt a bit to live it to the fullest (there were 6 of us), during the trip we were able to learn some basics about sailing, and the presence of the tender allowed us to visit many interesting coves. Recommended experience
Availability and professionalism, thanks for everything
Mr. Roberto was very helpful and he met all our needs.
